I need to measure the level of a tank fuel . The problem is that i don't know what kind of sensor to use ?

Any suggestions please ?
 

If it is for vehicle then surely it will have a potentiometric float. So, use it. Is the tank wall straight ? If yes, see if you can use eTape.
 

Most fuel tanks use a float linked to a potentiometer. For large tanks (not on a vehicle) there are numerous microwave, ultrasonic and weight sensors available.
Check any wreck in a yard to reuse the fuel gauge for a low cost. Or buy a new one from a certified store.
 

the tank is not for vehicle.Where can i find any certified store for these sensors?
